Agreed. I would be tempted to say, however, that if a country requires a certain boundary depiction by law, like e.g. India and China do, then that's the same level of verifiability like that country's internal boundaries for which we also rely on what the "official" take is. At least the current laws regarding the Indian border are much more than "an opinion of a political faction". Having said that - Portugal still officially claims Olivença but it seems to be more a folkloristic thing than an actual dispute, and the average Portuguese would probably be astonished if a map were to actually depict Olivença as part of Portgual. This means we'd have to start which claims are serious and which are just for old times' sake ;) Bye Frederik -- Frederik Ramm ## eMail frede...@remote.org ## N49°00'09" E008°23'33" _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
